The City of Hayward Mural Art Program continues its path towards excellence and deep commitment to its Hayward residents, by working in partnership with various communities, local jurisdictions, commissions, youth and artists to create murals throughout the city. It is with the development and fostering of cultural activism, historical significance, diverse artistic expression and positive collaboration that our mural art takes its inspiration. While this program supports multiple blight elimination efforts, beautification and the promotion of civic pride, its true success shines through in neighborhood enrichment and downtown rejuvenation.

The Hayward Public Art Mural Program is operated in support of the City Council’s “Crime and Public Safety” and “Cleanliness” priorities. The City is taking a pro-active, preventive approach to help eliminate graffiti through the public mural art program, which was implemented in April of 2009. It is the intent of the program to utilize and showcase local Hayward artists. Murals commissioned under this program are expected to reflect the best, most positive attributes of the Hayward community of Hayward.
